The Goodman 0161F00046 condensate drain trap is the OEM drainage component for the high-efficiency Amana AMES960805CUAB gas furnace. In a 96% AFUE condensing furnace, the secondary heat exchanger produces acidic condensate that must drain away continuously. This molded trap collects that condensate and, critically, maintains a water seal that prevents combustion flue gases from escaping backward through the drain line. A cracked, clogged, or missing trap is a leading cause of pressure-switch lockouts and furnace no-heat calls.
Drain traps are furnace-specific: port spacing, barb sizes, and the internal baffle that holds the water seal all vary by model. This OEM Goodman trap matches the AMES960805CUAB tubing routing exactly, so it seals and drains as designed. Generic traps frequently leak at mismatched ports or fail to hold a proper seal, tripping the pressure switch.
Rating: Moderate (3/5). Power off, then disconnect the condensate hoses and pressure-switch tubing, remove the old trap, and transfer each line to the matching port. Prime the trap with water before restoring power so the seal is established. Plan on 20–30 minutes and keep a towel handy for residual condensate.
